    Hi Val and many thank's for the Rotonde mail art, love the size of those letters hand made directly from the bar. But leave those cigarettes alone although the cards are great!

    Cheers!

    Hey Val! How are you? I wanted to get involved in the ArtiSlide stuff, what's going on with it?

  • DKult Chaplain Dustin de Wind

    Thanks Val! However, the Artislides groups says I was suspended by an Administrator. I am not sure what happened! Maybe you could help me out with that?

    The one on the right with the heart necklace. She's the down to earth cabbage patch doll. Do they have cabbage patch dolls in France? Or is that an American thing?

    Bonjour,Valentine!I have just read your post on my wall left on 22 may 2012:-)my daughter was born that day. God!Time flies!

    I don't recall what words there were on the card i sent to you but you please feel free and ask of translation. I'll be happy to shed some light for you on those verbal expressions of the soviet era.
  • stripygoose

    Morning to you - hope 355-359 have all arrived safely. The dots series of five from 365. Good luck with your exhibition! : > )
  • Guido Vermeulen

    By scanning and blogs, and archiving on a lap top with extended memory, dividing into chapters like paintings / collages / photos / mail art received by country / artist books / artistamps / publications / projects and so on

  • Guido Vermeulen

    Also Val,

    Most of my work goes out to the network, even the large paintings and collages.

    I want to destroy myself by scattering my ashes around, get it?

    LoL

  • Guido Vermeulen

    Man,

    Rabbit Nero is acting like one of my stray cats and wants to climb in a mail art box. I have never been so happy since he jumped from the wall to my garden. Now he is on top of a box. I store projects into boxes. He eats from the box, the giant pr... I have to accomodate. Rabbits like to taste paper and books, probably because of the wood. He has enough to eat, so the problem is his nature as if that is a problem in the first place. Funny situation is that he is on top of the rebel rebel project box.  Allez Nero, assez! Mais il ne m’écoutes pas, sans doute car je rigole trop fort! Lapin Rebelle

  • Guido Vermeulen

    Shots of interaction between Nero and mail art: on top of the rebel rebel box and eating some mail art letters in archive display (letter from Bonita S. Quite funny because the letter ends with the drawing of a cat. Bonita is not member of IUOMA, so I do not have to worry... LoL)

  • MERAL AĞAR

    "serbest" = Free

  • Suyapa Ramos

    De nada val, I am happy that you like it ;). i was going to open a little opening to be used as a piggybank, but I run out of time, and i was not sure also if it was going to work so I left it empty ;). 

  • Guido Vermeulen

    I do not have thousands of pieces at home, Val, like I told you, I mail the maximum out to the network! I only have a large storing box (the box of my plasma TV) in which I store some of the larger works, that’s all. The box is in room of the animals. They have their own space, but they are free to travel anywhere they want. The 3 of them use the cat door in the door to the garden to go in and out and in and out and in and out. They are very clean animals. It is the first time I have a rabbit, so I am learning and am surprised and delighted at the same time...
